As modern multi-tier systems are becoming increasingly large and complex, it becomes more difficult for system analysts to understand the overall behavior of the system, and diag...
Performance and power are critical design constraints in today’s high-end computing systems. Reducing power consumption without impacting system performance is a challenge for t...

This paper presents a highly predictable, low overhead and yet dynamic, memory allocation strategy for embedded systems with scratch-pad memory. A scratch-pad is a fast compiler-m...
Tracing garbage collectors traverse references from live program variables, transitively tracing out the closure of live objects. Memory accesses incurred during tracing are essen...
